Order: cefazolin sodium 0.5 g IV q12h in 50 ml D5NS over 30 min on an infusion pump and volume control set. Supply: cefazolin sodium 1g/10ml. At what rate in ml/h will the nurse infuse the child's medication with an infusion pump?

Expert Solution

Drug cefazolin sodium 0.5 g IV in 50ml over 30 minutes

Drug Available : 1gram/10ml

Ml/hour?

Drug order: 0.5g/ 50ml/30minutes

Here 0.5gram is equal to 500mg

Available drug: 1g/10ml that is 1000mg/10ml

So take 500mg/5ml

Here order dose

500mg/50ml/30minutes

50ml in 30minutes

So

100ml/60minutes

100ml/hour

Answer: 100ml/hour
